**Location & Access**
Half Moon Landing is a public boat ramp located on the Lynches River in Florence County, South Carolina, along the SC Revolutionary Rivers Trail. The facility provides a convenient launch point for kayakers, canoeists, and small to medium-sized boats, with dedicated parking available on-site. This is an important public access point, as it fills a gap for river users seeking access to the Lynches River between Effingham and Half Moon Road.
**What to Expect**
The Lynches River in this section is characterized by blackwater terrain with a swampy, scenic environment. Paddlers can expect to navigate through multiple creek channels, including Mill Creek and Clark's Creek, making this a good area for exploring quieter tributary waters. The landing also offers fishing access along the riverbanks and family-friendly amenities. Due to the blackwater and swampy nature of this section, water levels and conditions may vary seasonally, so paddlers should check conditions before launching.
